<p>Position Summary</p>
<p>
The Batut Lab investigates the genetic sequences and molecular mechanisms that regulate <b>gene expression</b> during development.</p>
<p>
Genes are often controlled by <b>regulatory elements</b> scattered over vast genomic regions, and we study how <b>3D genome organization</b> helps establish specific regulatory interactions at the right time and place. Additionally, these regulatory elements are often themselves transcribed, producing <b>non-coding RNAs</b> that can also regulate gene expression. We study these mechanisms through a multidisciplinary, quantitative approach that combines state-of-the-art <b>genome engineering</b>, <b>functional genomics</b>, and <b>single cell live imaging</b> to visualize the molecular events of transcription in living embryos.</p>
<p>
The lab just opened in January 2024, and we are looking for highly motivated individuals to join us in creating a vibrant, collaborative, and welcoming environment! The new technician will independently manage reagent ordering, prepare buffers and media, and maintain the lab&rsquo;s <i>Drosophila</i> collection, and will work closely with other members of the team to support a range of ongoing projects in the lab.</p>
